The temperature that is displayed on the washers is only an indication for the hot cycles.  The Hot Water Heaters are set for at least 75’c so by the time the water gets to the machine it would be at least 60’c.

These heavy-duty wash cycles can be used for extra dirty laundry as well. Please refer to our website locations page to see if your nearest laundromat has one available.
